If you are using Madwifi, then it can not.
But this is an obvious behavior because the sta vap keeps on scanning
different channels and the AP vap follows as both are on the same
physical radio.
Madwifi currently does not support (or supports with intermittent
problems) both AP and STA on the same card.
